When Jenna Fournel’s 8-year-old son, Oli, died in 2019, she turned to gardening in her grief. Now, she feeds her entire community. Every Saturday, she sets up a table in her  Alexandria, Virginia front yard filled with produce from her garden, as well as homemade breads and muffins, and offers it free to everyone. She says it keeps Oli’s spirit of loving kindness alive. One neighbor called it a “beautiful bounty of generosity."
“Practicing loving kindness toward ourselves and others is as good a way as any to start illuminating the darkness of difficult times.” – Pema Chodron
Affirmative prayer: Infinite Presence, I return to my natural, spirit-like way of being, practicing loving kindness toward myself and others. It’s a God-thing, holding my sisters and brothers in agape love, caring for them in spirit and action. May I be generous, even as Life gives to me, completely. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.
